Paperwork

In some cases, students will need to obtain paperwork from AUP before the internship begins:

INTERNSHIPS TAKING PLACE IN FRANCE

A convention de stage (French internship contract) is required for all internships taking place in France and must be signed by AUP, the student, and the employer.

The convention will only be issued by the Internship Office once the internship registration fees have been paid, and approvals from the Immigration and health offices, as well as the Department Chair/Program Director and faculty reader have been granted.

The convention stipulates the dates of the internship, general tasks, and indicates that the internship is directly connected to your course of study. It also provides mandatory supplemental workplace insurance. It can take up to two weeks for the internship coordinator to organize a valid convention signed by all three parties.
